Targeted delivery of lauric acid in enteric-coated pellets to the ileum and colon can stimulate substantial endogenous GLP-1 release and attenuate postprandial glycemia (93)
Structural analysis of substrate binding by the molecular chaperone DnaK
Unlike many peptides with low oral bioavailability, BPC-157 stands out due to its gastric origin and high oral bioavailability
Researchers at Blaze Bioscience have conjugated chlorotoxin with a near-infrared fluorescent dye to create tozuleristide, now called tumor paint. When injected before surgery, it causes cancer cells to glow under a specialized camera, so that neurosurgeons can see exactly what to remove and what to leave behind
In a healthy pregnancy, the maternal immune system is constantly altered to accommodate the needs of the growing fetus, and melatonin acts as a key anti-inflammatory by regulating immune homeostasis during early and late gestation. The key takeaways are that melatonin is essential for maintaining placental health and immune function in the mother while protecting the fetus from free radical damage, which can negatively impact growth and development
Because the brain is particularly vulnerable to oxidative stress, and anxiety disorders are characterized by a decrease in protective antioxidants as well as an increase in oxidative damage, treatments that protect against oxidative stress are desirable (54, 55)
